SHADE-CLOTH WITH IDENTIFICATION-MARK THEREON.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented March 5, 1907.

Application filed June 11. 1906. Serial No. 321,191.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, CHARLES W. BRENE- MAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shade-Cloths with Identification-Marks Thereon, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in shade-cloths with identification-marks thereon.

The marking must be such as not to injure the goods or to destroy the ornamental effect of the shade-cloth. Shade-cloth consists of white or bleached muslin, the opposite sides of which are coated with'a suitable coloringmatter. I have desired for some time to mark the shade-cloth with an identification, but was unable to find any way which did not injure the goods or destroy the ornamental efl'ect thereof until I devised the means herein set forth.

The features of the invention are set forth in the description of the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which the figure represents a section of the shade-cloth A, having the identifying-mark Brenlin thereon, said name being an arbitrary identification. The letters constituting this identifying-name are pricked through the shade-cloth near the margin. These minute orifices B, penetrating the shadecloth, disclose at their edges the intermediate white of the muslin, so that the letters appear to be displayed through the coloringmatter in a series of white dots. The efiect is ornamental, and the name is thus permanently imprinted on the-shade-cloth without injury thereto.

I am aware that hat-bands and similar articles have been marked With identifyingnames by forming the letters of a,series of punches through the article, and I do not claim such a means broadly; but

' l/Vhat I claim is Shade-cloth consisting of white muslin the opposite sides of which are coated with coloring-matter, and an identifying-name formed of letters pricked through the shade-cloth disclosing the white edges of the intermediate uncolored muslin, whereby the identifyingname is displayed by letters formed of a series of white dots visible through the colored surface of the shade-cloth.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand.

CHARLES W. BRENEMAN.
